WHEN A RACE HORSE MAY BE DOPED

Too Much Dependence Can Be Put On What The

Analyst's Test Brings Up

Says

"THE SCOUT”

The trainer must be held to blame when one of his charges is found to be doped. That is the guiding principle behind the stewards' rules in every country.

It is, for instance, an offence in America, involving_immediate suspension, if a syringe is found in the stables rented by any trainer. The rules in Australia are equally stringent.

Into The Quarter-finals

Finish of the 1951 Lincolnshire Handicap as portrayed above will make a pleasing frieze for the decoration of your bookmaker's office.

It shows the leading half of the field as Baracs Park passes the post with none of the chief fancies thereabouts,

The bookmaker may identify, with no Hittle satisfaction, the joint second favourites Masked Light and Flower Dust, but owing to lack of space he will miss his chief friend Astromonte.

The French-trained favourite, on whom the money poured on, finished 33rd of the 35 starters.

Barnes Park, trained for this race by George Boyd on the Dunbar sands, was not winning out of turn.

He had run on the flat 14 times before the Lincoln triumph, and his only mile race worth £276 at Thirsk in success (starting at 9-1 on) had been in a August, 1949.

So owner Mr Harry Lane, who paid 3,100 guineas for him as a yearling (and refused a £10,000 offer before the 1949 Derby, in which Barnes Park finished fifth), has been rewarded for his patience.

"I had a really good win," aald he, "and now for the Cheltenham Gold Cup

THE CUP FINAL SHOULD NOT COST MATTHEWS OR MILBURN THEIR INTERNATIONAL CAP

Says IVAN SHARPE

Will Stanley Matthews be barred from the England v. Scotland match? Will Milburn and the rest of the Cap finalists be excluded?

They have been omitted from the trial match at Dublin, between the leagues of England and Eire. And I pointed out recently how Selector C. E. Sutcliffe, after England's heavy defeat in the match of many finalists, said, "Never again.”

Arsenal's Glamour »

Attracts The Schoolboy Stars

Says HAROLD PALMER

One of the advantages of having a reputation such as Arsenal Football Club have is that any ambitious youngster who shows promise above the ordinary wants to join the club. That means that the schoolboy stars are attracted to Arsenal rather than Arsenal being attracted to them.

It is not only the London youngsters who are drawn by the Arsenal glamour. Mr Tom Whittaker, the Arsenal manager, has just received two interesting letters from Liverpool. One came from Len Johnson, schoolboy inter- national wing-half, the other from his headmaster.
